Mike, a bit off topic BUT where/when/why did all this gay stuff about you start???

There must have been ONE event/situation that triggered it and got the ball rolling.....just curious

No smoke without fire......and you've been smouldering for a long time now

Thanks for the constructive help so far. I have an opinion and i was just looking for a little back up on what others thought. Pink is not an option but i was condierering DynoRod orange !?! It was hard enough to make up my mind on the RL7's as i've got a set of 17" Rondell 122's and 17" TSW Hockenheims too ... least i've decided on the rim ... just not the colour !!!

Regards

James

Doug,
It was that tosser Phil . He calls everyone in the hope that if he says it enough, it will change that person's sexuality - so he can force himself on them .

James,
Dyno-rod orange, was not a colour you originally listed . I still think pink would suit you better .

Hi Stu,

Yes m8, i managed to get a set .... picked them up at the weekend; i'm just wondering what colour to get them refurbed. It looks like white may well be the colour as the cars pictured do look double hard.

Has anybody got a set of the Raceline decals for these wheels. Didn't someone re-make them (was is Sticker Paul?)

Regards

James

Gaz,

I'll probably be selling the Hocks (i've got two sets anyway) so if you're interested, drop me a PM.

Thanks for all the pics so far; it's given me a good idea of what i want to do.
